Geo-electric Methods
Geo-electric methods are techniques used to explore underground materials by measuring how they conduct electricity. Electrodes are placed on the ground's surface to send small electrical currents through the soil and rocks. By measuring the resulting voltage differences, scientists can determine differences in underground conductivity. This helps identify different types of rocks, fluids, or mineral deposits, aiding in resource exploration, groundwater studies, and environmental assessments. The method is non-invasive, providing valuable subsurface information quickly and efficiently without the need for drilling.
